Answer:

$x = - 3.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 = 4x + 8

-5 - 8 = 4x + 8 - 8

-5 + (-8) = 4x

-13/4 = 4x/4

Therefore, x = -3.25

-5 + (-8) = 4x

Find dy/dx and d2y/dx2. x = cos(2t), y = cos(t), 0 < t < π

pogonyaev

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}}{\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}}$

$y=\cos t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=-\sin t$
$x=\cos2t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=-2\sin2t=-4\sin t\cos t$
$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{-\sin t}{-4\sin t\cos t}=\dfrac14\sec t$

Let $z=\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}$ . Then

$\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}\dfrac{\mathrm dt}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}}{\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}}$
$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[\frac14\sec t\right]}{-4\sin t\cos t}=\dfrac{\frac14\sec t\tan t}{-4\sin t\cos t}=-\dfrac1{16}\sec^3t$

Answer answer please please

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

B. <

Step-by-step explanation:

2.7 * 10^3 is < 27 * 10^3

since

27 * 10^3 = 27000

2.7 * 10^3 = 2700

2700 < 27000

now since multiplying by 10 moves the decimal to the right, just looking and mentally comparing them. since they are both multiplied by 10^3 you're left with 2.7 and 27

27 is greater than 2.7

your answer is B or <

hope this helps :)
